Resolution in Support of President Trump, Urging Congress Focus on Critical Problems Facing Republic

Wilsonville, OR - The Oregon Republican Party released the following resolution approved at its most recent Central Committee Meeting held June 10th 2017.

========================================================

IN SUPPORT OF PRESIDENT TRUMP AND CALLING ON CONGRESS
TO FOCUS ON THE CRITICAL PROBLEMS FACING THE REPUBLIC
WHEREAS The Republican Party holds a majority of both houses of Congress; and

WHEREAS There is widespread reporting that surveillance authorized to protect the United States from foreign elements has been misused by members of the former Obama Administration for political purposes, yet no Congressional committee has focused on the issue; and

WHEREAS Judicial Watch and a National Security Agency (NSA) whistleblower provided the FBI two years ago with evidence that NSA spying authority was being illegally used, yet no Congressional committee has focused on the issue; and

WHEREAS The foregoing and other related matters threaten the foundations of our Republic, while the allegations concerning the foreign lobbying of sometime advisors to President Trump do not threaten the Republic and are a distraction from the grave dangers we face; and

WHEREAS The Oregon Republican Party is disappointed in the Congressional focus on investigations of President Trump and his Administration rather than the critical problems facing the Republic, including out-of-control spending, excessive taxation, failure to control our borders, continuing oppression of property rights and uses in Western states by federal land management agencies and the politicization of courts;

BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED:

The Oregon Republican Party calls upon the Members of Congress to focus their limited investigative resources on the misuse of spying authority and corrupt elements within our law enforcement and national security agencies, rather than attacks on President Trump and his Administration; and

The Oregon Republican Party calls upon the Members of Congress to make progress on the real issues facing the Republic, or resign so that our members can elect representatives willing to perform that job; and

The Oregon Republican Party directs its National Committeeman and Committeewoman to seek adoption of a resolution similar to this by the Republican National Committee, and directs its Executive Committee to publicize this resolution in support of the President and his policies.

Adopted by the Oregon Republican Party Central Committee on June 10, 2017.
